Blue Jays - Rangers

Harrison has been the real deal this season. Meanwhile, Jesse Litsch just moved into the rotation taking Brett Cecil's place. Pitching advantage for the Rangers here

Michael Young is out tonight, but I think Texas' bats are still strong to do enough damage.

I like the Rangers and the under

I should also mention that the weather forecast looks to be bad this evening...maybe a delay or possibly postpone. So we'll have to see if the game goes or not

YANKS/SOX..
I'M NEVER GOING TO GET OVER PHIL HUMBER (5+ ERA) COMING IN AND BLANKING THE YANKS..IF YOU TOLD ME BURNETT WOULD GIVE UP 1 RUN IN 8 INNINGS..I WOULD HAVE BOMBED THE 2.5 RUNLINE
yest 0-3 -$225

ytd 40-44 -$457

TONIGHT:
gavin floyd vs not so super Nova..tough call..both pitchers should be good for 3 runs ea in the first 4-5 innings but the pale hose bats have been dead..Last nights "double" by Quentin only happened because Granderson dove for a bloop and missed.. the other run scored becaise of a pop up behind the pitcher's mound that fell.Still with these 2 pitchers , I have to grab the over first 5

$100:
NYY/WSOX O 5.5 FIRST 5 -115

METS/WASHINGTON..Mets are on a 4 game streak but it was against 2 other dregs..with Philly on deck this can become a key series..Wright , beltran , reyes and Davis were all hot this weekend. Washington played last night and may be a little tired
The mets have finally set the rotation for the pen ..With 2 new pieces from the opening day rotation. Beato has the 7th, Izzy the 8th and Krazy Krod the ninth...Chris Young comes off the Dl and should be rested..while the nats have been a thorn in the /mets side recently, they still just lost 2 to shittsburgh

i'll take a shot

$100:
METS+105
METS/NATS O 7.5

$50:
METS/NATS O 4 FIRST 5 ONLY

Told ya guys Broxton is horrible.. He should be demoted soon, he has lost it.
i needed under last nite. donny baseball comes w/vincente padilla off the DL to start the 8th w/a one run lead? that's all the dodgers have? then either the eighth or ninth, the marlins lead off w/a strikeout, 'wait it's a passed ball'. then broxton & the backup shortstop together. brutal.

Yeah I'm going with the Dodgers as well.. Kershaw @ a fair price, Dodger bats seem to be seeing the ball well. BP is a concern.

@gyno: Any opinion on LAA tomorrow? I really like LAA -1 at -115, would have expected the -1 runline to be at -135:
Haren has been great so far, usually goes at least 7IP and Rodney and esp. Walden have been rock solid at the end to close out the games. A's offense has been terrible, esp. vs RHP.
Angels on the other hand have been hitting well the last few games (except for the BOS series), Ross isn't major league ready imo and was wild in SEA. LA lineup should be patient enough and they have good contact hitters to cash in on extra base runners...with tonights game pending, LAA also has had OAKs no. at Anaheim winning the last 7 games (looking like 8 straight right now).

I love the angels tomorrow.. Haren is pitching like a magician..

Weaver/Haren best 1-2 pitching combo in majors.. A's won't score.

I really like the Cardinals today in a bounce back spot. They did not play well yesterday and usually respond well after a bad loss in the opener of a series, TLR is all about winning series. Lohse has been fantastic and Happ has had some problems. I really like Happ but I think the Birds have some frustration to let out after playing poorly. It's a good bounce back spot for them at a reasonable price.

Pujols should be in the lineup today, it was just a minor twinge he came off the bench last night. Theriot had soreness I expect him to be back as well. I think they will put a much better lineup on the field today and score some runs. They got 5 last night and should have had more.

WENT 3-1 YEST +$140

BUT I LOST $410 ON THE YANKEE SERIES BET..UNBELIEVABLE..

They gave up 5 runs in two games and lost both .soriano blew the lead but the Yanks bats blew that game than a backup makes a running catch and then a diving catch on back to back plays preventing the winning run from scoring..fuck!

YTD NOW 43-46 -$727

YANKS / WHITE SOX

The Yanks have owned Buehrle but the way they are hitting who knows..Barto Colon goes for the yanks but neither offense is clicking.. Normally those 2 starters at the stadium would be an automatic first 5 over..but today..pass

METS/WASH..A stomach bug has plagued some of the Mets including Jason Bay but the team has won 5 in a row. Washington Starter Tom Gorzo... has pitched decently against the mets. He may be able to slow down the red hot Ike davis and Josh Thole will probably sit against him...still look for dickey to pick it up as the rest of the starters have..
Mets 5-3

Boston....after another poor performance by clay, and lack of offense against another lefty, the sox come back tonight with beckett. he has been great of late and i feel no reason why that shouldnt continue. guthrie is a good pitcher, but must have the sox in his head. he is 1-7 over his last 11 vs. boston. also, his era in those games is over 5.5..this looks to be a rebound game and i really love the sox in this position. gl!!!

I cant believe no one is talking about detroit vs seattle. Detroit can score runs, and seattle..well they cant. Seattle only has chance with their two good pitchers, but with Bedard on board, should be a slug fest for tigers. I dont see seattle scoring more than 3 runs this game. Does anyone else see this? or am i missing key information.
LAA are a lock tonight too.

I'm on the Mets myself, think they have been hitting well and Gorzelanny is pitching with the wind and he's a flyball pitcher.. Also he doesn't strikeout too much, Mets have some discipline lately.

I wagered on a Det/LAA parlay last night, +140.. I love Det's chances, Verlander is a top 10 pitcher..
